Observations on a Timberwolves Game

My dad was given free tickets to a Wolves game (thanks for being a veteran, Dad!) and he gave them to us along with free baby-sitting, so Isaac and I had a night out last night. Isaac convinced me to leave Amelie too, and she did just fine for 4 hours with my dad, even taking a bottle of expressed milk without a problem. Here's what I learned:
  • People in downtown Minneapolis dress very differently than I do.
  • Some men wear fur coats to Wolves games.
  • Lots of women wear stiletto heels to Wolves games, even with jeans. Some even wear leather miniskirts.
  • There are a lot of skanky women there.
  • The noise and action kind of hypnotizes a tired mom - I was in a daze before the end of the first half.
  • The Wolves "dancers" were by far my favorite part. I loved watching them move in their stilettos. Some of them even had to climb the stairs into the stands (that takes serious talent in 3-4 inch heels - they were really leaning). It was fun to watch the men behind them ogle shamelessly.
  • Basketball players are really tall.
  • It's fun to be out with my husband.
  • I'm willing to do this again anytime someone has free tickets and is willing to babysit!
